LOCATION:KU Field Station Armitage Education Center\, 350 Wild Horse Road\

DESCRIPTION:Join Brad Williamson\, retired educator and avid bryophyte ent

 d new to mosses or have already started learning to identify them\, this 
 workshop will help you build essential skills to explore the fascinating 
 world of bryophytes: mosses\, liverworts and hornworts.\n\nBryophytes hav
 e ancient origins and are remarkably successful plants\, thriving in a va
